Big Yellow Taxi(feat. Vanessa Carlton Lyrics

Big Yellow Taxi(feat. Vanessa Carlton

[Adam Duritz]

 They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

 With a pink hotel, a boutique, and a swingin' hot spot

 Don't it always seem to go 

 That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone

 They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

 

 [Vanessa Carlton]

 Ooooh, bop bop bop

 Ooooh, bop bop bop

 

 [Adam]

 They took all the trees, and put em in a tree museum

 And they charged the people a dollar and a half to see them

 No, no, no

 Don't it always seem to go

 That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone

 They paved paradise, and put up a parking lot

 

 [Vanessa]

 Ooooh, bop bop bop

 Ooooh, bop bop bop

 

 [Adam]

 Hey farmer, farmer, put away your DDT

 I don't care about spots on my apples,

 Leave me the birds and the bees

 Please

 Don't it always seem to go

 That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone

 They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

 Hey now, they paved paradise to put up a parking lot

 Why not?

 

 [Vanessa]

 Ooooh, bop bop bop

 Ooooh, bop bop bop

 

 [Adam]

 Listen, late last night, I heard the screen door slam

 And a big yellow taxi took my girl away

 Don't it always seem to go

 That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone

 They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

 Well, don't it always seem to go

 That you don't know what you got 'til it's gone

 They paved paradise to put up a parking lot

 Why not?

 They paved paradise and put up a parking lot

 Hey hey hey

 Paved paradise and put up a parking lot

 

 [Vanessa]

 Ooooh, bop bop bop

 Ooooh, bop bop bop

 

 [Adam, Vanessa]

 I don't wanna give it

 Why you wanna give it

 Why you wanna giving it all away

 Hey, hey, hey

 Now you wanna give it

 I should wanna give it

 Now you wanna giving it all away

 

 Hey, paved paradise to put up a parking lot
